Thanks. Yes, they're blades with a bend bigger than the Pugsley fork up front. Could probably get a 6-inch tire in there -- even more had I not cut them down. 170 mm spacing in rear. Bike actually rides nice and more nimble than expected, even at 41 lbs. Still working on detachable cromoly rack, with a longboard skate deck atop it.

No issues yet, surprisingly. I've taken a couple of links out of the chain since the picture, which was taken by a buddy just after the rattle-can paint dried. I think the non-ramped Surly ring up front helps keep the chain from dropping.
